Now, imagine if a mayor or state legislator vowed to spend billions of taxpayer dollars on expanding a freeway they drive on daily. Would the media frame that as a scandal?

Also, the talk radio host is obviously jealous of Mayor Wilson being able to live close to work and not drive. I’ve long argued that part of the hatred towards biking, transit, and urbanism stems from suburban car commuters being jealous of the lifestyle we have because driving in traffic sucks

The talk radio host could easily afford to do that. They just don’t want to.

Obviously, the main audience of talk radio shows is people driving everywhere and constantly stuck in traffic. So the "scandal" is a total rage bait to rile up a captive audience.
